INSPIRATION

THROW DESIGNS

The wraps and throws were inspired by a poorboy sweater my Grandmother knit for me in the 60’s. Newfoundland was far from Carnaby street where the sweater was popular. I considered the gift from my grandmother’s needles a hug and it followed me for years. When the Inn needed pieces that would wrap around guests shoulders the first image that came to mind was that wonderful garment from my childhood.
